A Sci-FI movie NOT written by Hollywood Hacks

Rating: 10/10 (2 August 2005)

Over the last 50 years I have seen most every SF movie made. Some were good, most were terrible. Few were well written and well presented -- this is one of the best.
I was fortunate in that I avoided enduring the trailers, so I sat down with my wife not know that it was Science Fiction. I expected some sort of date/chick flick.
This was well done with few blatant errors or predictabilities. Unlike the moronic Hollywood crap (Armageddon, Day After Tomorrow, Independence Day, etc, etc, etc) this was written like good SF, not overly predictable, with a plot twist and a moral.
Acting was great, good character presentation, GREAT visuals and special effects, and a plot that seldom sees the light of Hollywood. Go see it.
